Over the past two decades, Harry Connick, Jr. has proven to be among the world’s most successful and multi-talented artists. Connick first reached a mass audience as a pianist, singer and bandleader, securing his place in the public eye as a renaissance man and versatile entertainer. His love of music and performing dates back to his childhood in New Orleans, where he studied piano with such luminaries as James Booker and Ellis Marsalis. He first performed publicly at age five, appeared on his first jazz recording at age ten, and released his self-titled major label debut for Columbia Records at 19, only a year after his high school graduation and his move to New York City.
Connick achieved widespread success as a musician when director Rob Reiner asked him to contribute the score to his 1989 smash When Harry Met Sally, leading to Connick's first multi-platinum album (also his first big band recording.) At the same time, Connick has built a successful film career, appearing both on screen and soundtracks. After making his acting debut in Memphis Belle in 1990, he has also been seen in Little Man Tate, Copycat, Independence Day, Excess Baggage, Hope Floats, Life Without Dick, and John Grisham’s Micky. His music has also contributed to the success of such films as Godfather III, Sleepless in Seattle and The Mask.
As a television performer, Connick has starred in two holiday specials built around his best selling holiday albums When My Heart Finds Christmas and Harry for the Holidays, and two Great Performances/PBS concert specials Swingin’ Out Live and Harry Connick, Jr.: Only You In Concert for which he won a 2004 Outstanding Music Direction Emmy. He is currently working with IDT Entertainment on The Happy Elf, a one-hour 3D animated 2005 holiday special based on his original children’s song from the Sony/Columbia Harry for the Holidays release, the top selling holiday CD of 2003 . In addition, he starred in the ABC TV adaptation of the musical South Pacific and played the recurring role of Dr. Leo Markus on the NBC hit series Will & Grace.
All of these achievements – not to mention his album sales of over 20 million, his three Grammy awards, Emmy award, his Tony nomination for music and lyrics composed for the Broadway play Thou Shalt Not, and his performance of Oscar and Golden Globe nominated songs – reflect a creative energy that make Harry Connick Jr. unique in the world of contemporary entertainment.
